A2A Update, SP1 for 377 news

Yo Dave

From what I've just managed to Google TransOcean took eight of the fourteen BOAC aircraft

The link above say 14 so perhaps they bought them all but only flew eight

Hello Mate

Tks for that ;-) A new one on me is Transocean

EDIT..
BOAC lost one aircraft and 2 others were WFU and stored at Stansted '60.. ANUB and ANUC. Transocean did indeed buy the rest of BOAC's 377 fleet ;-)

Funny I had never heard of them until I bought the Corgi back in about 2000 :think:

Probably the last major user of the type.

Thanks very much for the info. Interesting stuff.

Additionally, I remember the Skylink Guppy's flying into Manchester during the 1980's.

I think I'll be adding this beauty to my fleet.

This product takes flight simming to a whole new level. :o

Really looking forward to the patch!

Very good but too much for one person :think:

Easy Gary, hand the turbo's to the FE, use AP and crew reports ;-)

If a numpty like me and Techy can fly this then you guys should have no problem, with me and techy on board its been Pratt tested

[Garry Russell]

Hi Lewis



Take your point...Techy's a lot better than me

But like anything, just need to get used to it

I can cope with flying the aircraft safely.

However, I can honestly say I can't relax for a second, due to the fact there are far too many things to monitor and adjust during the flight.

I like to keep busy though.
